"My lord, do you know this?"

The messenger on the side took another thing from his arms, but it was Han Sui's [Assassin Official Seal], and then handed it to Gao Junya.

This thing is used to win the trust of Gao Junya.

After all, the news of Han Sui's defeat in Fencheng has not yet spread, and without this thing, it is difficult for Gao Junya to believe that Han Sui is dead.

"What?"

"This is the official seal of Lord Thorn Shi?"

"Lord Han Sui is really dead?"

"I-"

When Gao Junya heard this, she was quite shocked in her heart.

He began to hesitate.

To descend or not to descend?

For a while, it was difficult to choose.

"Lord Gao, now, although you have more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in Taiyuan City, you are just a captain, and you are soft-spoken, if Yan Xing and Cheng Gongying return, I am afraid that it will be difficult to keep the military power in your hands, right?"

The messenger whispered.

"I-"

Gao Junya became more and more frightened.

Because what the messenger said, but it is true, now, Cheng Gongying and Yan Xing are collecting grain in Daijun, not in Taiyuan City, if the two return, Han Sui will die newly, and his power will be received by the two of them.

The 10,000 soldiers and horses in his hands will also be taken by the two, and at that time, he will be defenseless and suffer from mermaids.

This kind of ending is not what he wants, he is loyal to Han Sui, and it is also because Han Sui has the grace of knowing and supporting him, and now that Han Sui is dead, it is time for him to plan for himself.

"Da Sima, if you can agree to my conditions, I am willing to surrender."

After hesitating for a moment, he finally decided to surrender to Yuan Ke.

"My lord will talk about the conditions first, if my family's big Sima can do it, my family's big Sima should allow it."

The messenger said.

"If I dedicate Taiyuan City to Da Sima, there are no other conditions, I just hope that Da Sima can spare Lord Han's family."

"After all, Lord Han has the grace of helping me."

Gao Junya proposed.

"Good!"

"I have agreed to this on behalf of my lord."

The messenger said.

"You, can you take the place of your lord? You, who are you? ”

Gao Junya looked at the messenger again.

Then, he gradually noticed that the messenger in front of him seemed familiar, but he could not remember it for a while.

"Lord Gao, the eyes of fire are like torches, nothing can deceive adults."

This messenger removed some of the camouflage on his body and restored his original appearance, which was Xu Yang, the military advisor beside Yuan Ke.

He ventured into Taiyuan City in order to persuade Gao Junya to surrender.

"You, are you Mr. Xu Yang Xu? You, you also surrendered to Yuan Ke? ”

Gao Junya knows Xu Yang.

Before, Xu Yang was a strategist by Han Sui's side and was quite important.

"Han Sui was incompetent, stubborn and self-serving, and did not listen to my persuasion before the battle, resulting in a big defeat, and I, Xu Yang, had to switch to the account of Da Sima and work for him."

"Now, Han Sui has been defeated, Zhang Yang and Wang Kuang have also been captured, and Bingzhou is already the world of Da Sima."

"Tall man, as the saying goes, good birds choose trees to perch."

"The great Sima Yuan Ke is the master of the world, the great hero who will end the troubled times in the future, serve for it, make meritorious contributions, and be crowned an official in the future, which is a wise choice."

"The power of Han Sui in the state has been extinguished, Lord Gao, return to the Great Sima, and end the rebellion of the state, which is an immortal achievement."

"The history books will also have their own strong strokes."

Xu Yang is worthy of being a celebrity, his mouth is really a lotus, and he persuaded Gao Junya in just a few words.

"Mr. Xu, you don't have to talk about it."

"Surrender under the next wish!"

"I only hope that Mr. can save Lord Han's family."

When Gao Junya heard this, he didn't continue to say anything.

He immediately descended.

"Good!"

After that, Gao Junya led the people to surrender, opened the city gate, and led the 30,000 troops led by Xu Yang into the city.

Taiyuan, Suikezhi.

Three days later, Yuan Wu also pacified the Shangdang counties, captured Zhang Yang's family and property, and entered Taiyuan.

Hanoi County was also conquered by Gu Dinh Zhang's army.

Wang Kuang's family members were also taken to the prison in Taiyuan, and their family property was confiscated.

At this point, the whole territory of the state was pacified.

The counties and counties also announced their annexation.

After that, Yuan Ke went north from Fencheng, entered Taiyuan, and began to govern and merge the state, in order to restore the people's livelihood, he lightly forced labor, reduced taxes, emphasized agriculture and mulberry, and introduced a lot of policies to comfort the people and enrich the people.

Farming is also rewarded.

On this day, Yuan Ke had just finished handling the government affairs at hand, stretched his waist, and was just about to go to see Diao Chan, but saw Xu Yang coming in in a hurry.

"Lord, something is wrong."

"There was a great chaos in the city just now. Many rioters began to loot food in the city. ”

"Looting food? How is this possible? Now that the country and the people are safe, the war is over, and General Ben has also issued a lot of decrees to restore people's livelihood, why does it lead to the act of looting food? ”

When Yuan Ke heard this, he was also quite surprised.

"Master, I sent someone to check this matter, it is a rumor in the market that the Hun army is coming, so it caused a storm of grain grabbing, and now, the price of flour and rice has increased four or five times compared with the same time."

Xu Yang reported.

"What? The Huns are coming? Has this been verified? ”

When Yuan Ke heard this, he couldn't help but become cautious.

Once this matter is serious, it will affect his carefully deployed plan, and now the hidden danger of the three road princes of the state has been pacified, he is just about to raise troops to the south to meet the eighteenth road princes, if the Huns come to attack at this time, he has to divide his troops to deal with the Huns, at that time, the war in Luoyang is afraid that there will be variables.

The troops he deployed near Luoyang were only 80,000 people, and in the face of hundreds of thousands of princes' armies, I am afraid that he would not be able to hold out for long.

Once the Luoyang defense line is defeated, at that time, hundreds of thousands of princes' troops will drive straight into the pass, and rescue the Son of Heaven, at that time, his situation will be very passive.

This is a situation he does not want to see.

"Lord, I have already sent someone to verify just now, and I believe that there will be results soon."

Xu Yang raised his hand and said.

"Now, we can only wait for the news, but the turmoil of grabbing grain must be calmed down, otherwise the price of grain is too high, and the people have no food to eat, which is going to be a big problem."

"I wonder if Mr. has a good plan?"

Yuan Ke asked.

"Lord, this matter is also simple, find a grain merchant to open a knife, and raid his house on the charge of [driving up grain prices], so that the price of grain will inevitably fall."

Xu Yang's strategy is somewhat vicious, but I have to say that it is also the fastest and most effective method.

"Good!"

"Sir, this is a brilliant plan."

Yuan Ke agreed to this matter.

"This incident is also related to the manipulation of these grain merchants behind the scenes."

After that, he decided to take matters personally.

"Cheng bites gold!"

Half an hour later, Yuan Ke led his troops to [Dexing Grain Store], he came on horseback, and when he arrived at the place, he found that many people were coaxing food.

"Shopkeeper, I, I'm here to buy grain, rice and white flour, I don't know what the price is now?"

A loyal and honest man finally lined up and came to the shopkeeper, and he asked timidly.

"Rice is 30 wen/jin, and white flour is 25 wen/jin."

The fortune shopkeeper stretched out his hand and said.

"What? Didn't the rice just now cost 15 cents a pound? Why is it now 30 yuan a pound? Shopkeeper, aren't you bullying? ”

When the man heard this, he said loudly.

"You also said that it was just now, and now the price has risen, it is thirty yuan a catty, do you like it, if you don't want it, get out of the way, some people buy it."

The man's fortune shopkeeper shouted dissatisfied.

"I warn you, this price is now, maybe in a while, it will increase again."

"Now, the Huns are coming, when the time comes, there will be a war, there is no rice and noodles, you have money, and you can only go hungry."

His words had just been spoken.

The man who protested immediately wilted, he still had his wife and children at home who needed to eat, and he couldn't be rash.

After that, he spent money on thirty catties of rice and fifty catties of white flour.

Originally, he only had savings and could buy more grain, but after the price of grain increased, he could only buy so much.

"Thirty dollars a pound of rice?"

"Bastard!"

Yuan Ke, who was in the distance, was immediately angry when he heard this.

He said loudly: "Profiteers have misled the country. ”

"Cheng Biting Jin, go to pass on General Ben's military order, seize all the grain stores, and leave no one, the shopkeepers of the major grain stores, Mr. Bookkeeper, will be put in prison for General Ben, and their grain will be stolen by General Ben."

"Anyone who dares to obstruct law enforcement will be killed."

Yuan Ke originally wanted to deal with the matter gently, but now he was furious when he saw the crazy rise in food prices.

He understood that this was a naked provocation.

"No!"

Cheng Yanjin and other soldiers were also extremely angry, and they couldn't wait to kill all these profiteers.

As soon as he heard Yuan Ke's military order, he immediately went to transfer troops.

As for Yuan Ke, he personally dealt with the grain store in front of him.

"Do it!"

At the sound of an order, the armor soldiers accompanying him immediately rushed forward with their swords.

"You, who are you? What to do? I, we are the grain store of the Wang family, you stinky soldiers, dare to grab food, our Wang family will not spare you. ”
